as a texas flag waver and a expert tactitian the Texans would see these paper tanks and piss (strong ammonia piss)a hole through these suckers and tell scott they are not worth the yens and pesos itook to get them here…made in what??????yea a no!! yea im going to need to see your permission to enter the great state of Texas!!!!……step back from the border…i will use my flag and …wave it..

i’ll take whatever’s free. however, if i get a choice i’ll take .5 scotch and .5 vodka, none of the cheap shit. that’s right when you reach for the top shelf grab the key on top and unlock the good stuff.

(as much as I like gin) and you like to laugh… listen to The Real Happy Hour podcast. Very funny, and they basically worship gin. They try to do a different drink each show, but inevitably every few episides they drop the ball on ingredients so they have to fall back to whats in the liquor cabinet, or in this case the freezer… so there’s like 6 episodes on either martinis or G-n-Ts. But the dialogue is hysterical. They’re not making many new episodes, but the early ones are great.

since you badgered the ever-so-sweet MuchAdo, and challenged her integrity–where did all these titles come from? Looks like lots of fluff and stuff for a sergeant! (Even a respectable DOMREC sergeant.)

and have yet to contract malaria. You see, it’s medicinal! Besides when I was a young junkie, one of my heroes, W.C. Fields, said, “While I was crossing the Himalayas, I ran out of gin and was forced to drink water.” It sounded awful and I thought, gin must be a wonderful beverage. Turns out to be true!

because he typed “whicky.” Not sure I wanna drink any of that. But I’ll gladly join you both for some whisky, scotch, or the official adult beverage of the Rookie Universe (and presumably the Siglerverse at large): GIN.

we hold dear in the good old USA–booze, guns and smokes. Thus the need for an entire branch of government just to watch over them. (OK, the actual utility of that branch of government is tenuous, but the thought of it is pretty cool.)

Our Texas authority had noted all the tanks were stamped with this label.

The FDO would never outsource his military needs or put all his eggs in one basket. If you ask me this new guy/gal (or just a less inconspicuous guy/gal or hell it could be the FDO himself) is one smart cookie!

You need to get yourself back to Texas pronto! I assure you, there are tanks there. Plaid ones. A few even have racing stripes. LARGE tanks with LARGE racing stripes. And one was even postured to mock the children–had those handlebar tassels you see on bikes attached to the flare dispensers. Oh, and a whole bunch of them had those little bike bells on them. Just imagine how that’s going to look/sound. Be very afraid…

I have it on good authority that there are some plaid tanks moving stealthily in and through the Great State of Texas. Other than the vast spaces of Alaska, what better place to hide, maneuver and train the Plaid Tank Battalions than Texas! But that’s just like our FDO not to put his eggs in one basket! He’s clearly powerful. And well-groomed. Mycroft, do you have a companion logistician out there, or perhaps a competitor?

Texas had no tanks building then, and I had to start them building in San Diego. I also inspected the USS Midway, so we can grab her for carrier support.

I also set up the area in Lawrence, KS for the meet up at the end of the conquest of the US. We’ll use the dorms on Daisy Hill to house some of the troops. Easily enough space for 5000 troops there alone, in comfort. Twice that in a pinch.

Since my old dorm room was a type of plaid – even then, it will be my HQ when we get there.

FDO – how are we set up for air support?

Like you think this big wonderful state of Texas doesn’t have plaid tanks. Pleeease!!!!!! Everything is "bigger and better in Texas" not to mention that "Texas is like a whole nother country". We could take out the rest of your states with our hands tied behind our back!

from New Hampshire, which as you probably know is right next to MA. And especially where i live (Nashua) being as far south in NH as you can get without hitting Mass. Haha, half of the parking lot of the mall i work in is technically in Mass! lol Oh and p.s. NO SALES TAX HERE ETHEIR! WIN!!!

As general of Logistics, I have a major tank painting site here in Florida. This is where many tanks are stored, waiting for the acension. If we sweep thru South Forida first, we are in a good strategic position, with no enemies behind us.

And it is easier to take out Hutchinsss by surprise.

We’re busy being all preoccupied with BALTICON. Which ain’t in the South East. Or any part of the South. Don’t worry though–the FDO and his plaid tanks will roll across the entire South (East included). You, the afternoon tea crowd, the dain bramaged Floridians and the Cubans can see him and get yer books signed then. (grin)
